8 Elijah took his mantle,(A) rolled it up, and struck the water, which parted to the right and left. Then the two of them crossed over on dry ground.(B) 9 When they had crossed over, Elijah said to Elisha, “Tell me what I can do for you before I am taken from you.”
So Elisha answered, “Please, let me inherit two shares of your spirit.”(C)
10 Elijah replied, “You have asked for something difficult. If you see me being taken from you,(D) you will have it. If not, you won’t.”
